Displacement is a vector quantity. So, you incorporate the vector calculations when you try to determine the resultant vector. This is the shortest path from the starting point to the endpoint. If they are moving on one axis only, you use sign conventions. For motions moving to the left, use the negative sign. If it's moving to the right, then use the positive sign. Now, it the object moves 2 km to the left, and 2 km also to the right, the displacement is zero.
Displacement = 2 km - 2km = 0
Generally, the equation is:
<span>Displacement = Distance of motion to the right - Distance of motion to the left</span>
Answer:
The Flemings left hand rule is used to find the magnitude of a magnetic force
Explanation:
Fleming's left hand rule states that if the first three fingers are held mutually at right angles to one another, then the fore finger points into the direction of magnetic field the middle finger in the direction of current while the thumb points in the direction of force.
Mathematically
Magnetic Force F= BILsinθ
Where
B= magnetic field density Tesla
I= current
L= length of conductor
θ= angle of conductor with field
